5. Fitness Testing
5.1.
Introduction
The Cardio and Landice Achieve Elliptical have built-in tests
that measure fitness level based on your age, gender, and
performance. Two different fitness test protocols are available.
A person’s fitness level can be measured by the amount of
oxygen their body can consume while exercising at maximum
capacity. The maximum amount of oxygen (in milliliters) an
individual can use in one minute per kilogram of body weight is
referred to as VO
2
Max.
When you perform one of the fitness tests described in this
section, the elliptical calculates approximate VO
2
Max and
provides a fitness evaluation.
Note: Scores may vary due to line voltages, component
tolerances, and individual capabilities. For a more
accurate VO
2
Max calculation, take the average of the
Balke and Firefighter Fitness Test scores.
5.2.
Army 2 Mile Fitness Test
This is a hands-free, complete as fast as you can fitness
assessment run. Fitness Protocols come equipped with
Automatic Transmission software. As you pedal faster to
increase your speed, the elliptical automatically increases the
effort level, yielding a faster “running” (MPH) speed. Vice versa,
when you slow down, the elliptical automatically decreases
effort level, yielding a slower “running” (MPH) speed. Upon
completion you will receive an assessment score (0-100).
To run the test:
1. Press the button under
PROGRAMS
to view the programs
selection screen. To scroll through the programs, either
continue to press
PROGRAMS
or use the arrow
keys.
2. Select the Army 2 Mile Fitness Test by pressing
ENTER
.
3. Enter your age (10 to 99) using the keypad or the arrow
keys, then press
ENTER
or wait 3 seconds.
